Assigning Jobs when crew asleep or free time

When you assign a job on a facility when the crew are asleep or free time they instantly get up and do it even if they are on a sleep schedule.
I was wondering if this is intended, or is there a way to assign a job to crew that they will do when they are next  on a work schedule?
I would imagine drafting them and getting them to do a job immediately would be a thing though.
